Other Berlin neighborhoods worth knowing
- MitteThe historical center — Brandenburg Gate, Museum Island, Hackescher Markt. Polished, central, the first-time default.
- KreuzbergThe food and nightlife heart — Turkish-German cooking, club density, the Berlin most people fly here for.
- Prenzlauer BergFormer East Berlin, now the leafy family-friendly district — restored 1900s housing, playgrounds, the calm-Berlin choice.
- FriedrichshainEast of Mitte — East Side Gallery, Berghain, the harder-edged nightlife district. Younger and rougher than Kreuzberg.
- NeuköllnSouth of Kreuzberg — the post-Kreuzberg creative spillover, Turkish-and-design food, Tempelhofer Feld at the western edge.
